"they didn't leave you....they may have left this world...but they'll always be with you" he said softly, wiping a tear from Arina's eye. "Like in the story, Footprints." he continued.

Arina had a confused look on her face. "Footprints?" She asked as she shivered. She was always cold whenever she was sad.

taku smiled. "in the story, a ghost of a man lookes back on his life, as if it were a path on the beach. through each scene of his life, there were footprints in the sand....mostly there were twio sets....but then in the middle of the bad times, deaths, tragedied, ECt. there was only one set. so the man turned to his previously dead loved one and asked him why he was left alone through those times....why there was only one set during times of trials. simply to which the loved one replied, 'my dear friend, i never left you...for during the hard times, i carried you through' so you see?....through your life, loved ones and friends; alive or dead, carry you through...and are never apart from you" he explained.

Taku smiled as he offered his hand. "That can easily be remedied....My name is Taku....Abumi Taku" he said softly.

Taku sat up on the opposite side of the bed, his hair falling gently in front of his left eye as he supported himself on his elbows, leaning backwards.
